New Zealand Datsun Club

This one is staying in the H.B for now will bring down later on

It is a Mk1 Cortina Consul - pease out taillights and all - i inherited this from my grandad 2 years ago.
hasnt been running for around 5 years - just some sneak pics ill get some more of the whole car later.

Plans are to panel and paint - back in white - sacked on 13x7 widened steels with whtewalls and the dome hubcaps they have - keep it pre crossflow aswell with 1500, cam, sidies etc.

Ooh you sly devil, glad you came out with that!
More pictures please! Being 63 it has the best front grille?

Are the passengers side doors off that shell, or another, ie damaged?

awesome, i think there are a few members on here who have a quiet love for these things, me being one. very nice

ill put my hand up, I love these they are so totally cool

me three

doors are all original but have rust thou - dad and grandad back in the day wrecked out a mk1 gt 4door
so i have spare doors and bumpers etc will deffinately get more pics yep it has the grill that doesnt go over the park lightd which i think is the best

Awful similar to my own one. Id be keen to see some pictures of the instruments and what not. Column or floor change?

olny taken mw a couple of years to get it out.

Dad and i went and got her out on a recent weekend back home - had to un seize brakes and towed it only with half pie handbrake.
Its all there or in the spare parts bin we have for it - its now in Dads double garage beside the KE25

It was column shift but has been changed t floor and it has a escort 1.1 in it but that'll come out.
Since dad and I are so good with conversions (TUFDAT) this one will get an MX5 1.8 and 5 speed with the rocker covers changed out for the Ford ones.

Heres a couple of pics of the KE25 too - dads getting there slowly - is on the hunt for a straight bootlid and a few other bits and pieces.

an mx5 powered mk1 cortina will be so nice. keep us updated with this
